Automated Valet Parking System

Abstract

Abstract

Achieving driverless Automated Valet Parking* without dedicated expensive sensors.(SAE Level 4 in limited areas)

Automated Valet Parking* : AVP

Features

Features

Achieving driverless automated valet parking system operated by mobile devices via Management server.

Integrated infrastructure monitoring system

Ensuring safety in parking lots by integrating in-vehicle sensing and Infrastructure monitoring system with surveillance cameras used for security purposes.

Using only in-vehicle conventional sensing for ADAS

Conventional devices such as cameras, sonars, radars.

Links to monitoring system with Management Server

In-vehicle sensing and infrastructure monitoring are linked via the Management Server to achieve safe autonomous driving. The driver can give the vehicle remote instructions to enter or exit the parking lot with a smartphone or tablet via the Management Server.

Technical Advantages

Technical Advantages

Provide safety and smooth guidance without GPS

Surveillance cameras monitor the parking lot

Surveillance cameras monitor empty spaces and pedestrians/other cars with deep learning detection.

Management server links to surveillance Information

Based on information from the monitoring system, the Management Server can issue low-latency braking instructions using wireless communication with traffic priority control, thus can safely stop the vehicle even in dangerous conditions.

High accuracy localization without GPS

Localization system is estimated from the two-dimensional road surface map of the parking lot and the image information from multiple cameras mounted on the vehicle.
Highly accurate vehicle localization is possible even indoors without GPS, allowing parking with a clearance of 20cm.

Applications

Applications

Application

For drivers

Reduce significantly stress related to parking.(e.g., finding a parking space, walking a long distance from a parking lot, dealing with adverse weather condition)

For parking owner

Effectively utilize land by enabling the use of distant parking lots and small parking spaces.
